The career podcast you actually want to listen to.
Does the world really need another podcast? Maybe not, but most career advice out there is bad. Like, really, really bad. It’s often given by “experts” who haven’t necessarily lived the day-to-day stuff you and I have. It misses the point. It’s inauthentic.
Meet Greg. Greg has shaped organizational change for some of the most iconic companies in the world -- from Time Inc. to News Corp, Dow Jones and The Wall Street Journal. Combining conversations with leaders in media and career advice from his weekly NY Post column, Greg explores your real career questions with straight talk and humor.
